if you haven't noticed, we made some changes.
the goal is to make our main sections more visible to nurses and student nurses; hopefully, decreasing the amount of non-related posts that cross over to each other.
rename general tab to nurses
"general" makes it sound like it's open for everyone - probably attracting all newcomers
reorder tab navigation
reordering will help members get around. it will also make it easier to associate one section with another.
the new tab order...
remove last 24 hours link
last 24 hours link is obsolete. currently, you can find it under myaccount.
new posts renamed to what's new .
reorder forums
general nursing section reorder:
students section reorder:
these steps are just the beginning of changes coming to allnurses.com
I prefer the Last 24 Hours thing. I don't like the What's New at all. I don't think that was a necessary or helpful change.
I agree. Now you have to be logged in and go through changes to get to 24 instead of just scrolling to the top of the page. I don't like What's New. If I'm not logged in, two maybe three, threads come up when I click What's New.
Only took me about 10 minutes looking at the Site Map and searching "last 24 hours" before I realized it is now called "What's New". The only possible advantage to that I can see is on a slow day the first 20 pages could have posts more than 24 hours old.
What's New is at the top of the page. Last 24 Hours was removed from the top of the page and put last on the list that appears when you click My Account. You can get the last 24 hours option but you have to work to get there.
I agree about the "What's New" option. On AN-Central, it often informs me that there are no new threads, but to "click here" for recent posts to existing threads. I don't like having to go thru 2 steps, when 1 used to do the job. I don't always log in, either. Sometimes I make a quick visit and then log in if there's something new I'd like to respond to.
I share my computer wth too many people to stay logged into any site :)
I'm always logged in . . . .steph
Me, too, when I am at home. When we're on the road, however, and parked in the middle of a field somewhere (don't laugh, we do it often) I can't do that...and time is everything!
Even at home, however, I don't like going through more work than before, and more work than is actually necessary. Plus on my computer, (maybe it's the screen size or something) I click on My Account, but have to THEN scroll down to even see the Last 24 Hours option, then click on that, so it's a three step process. And I really don't like that.

The only places I'm logged in are here at home or at work as I do not own a laptop. If I did - I'd check allnurses all the time . . even in a field!
As to your other complaint -

I do, of course, check in from the fields....but it is more of a nuisance now, with the new "improvement" ( which in most cases in most places is not an improvement at all, just something different.) :chair:

I was just whining about not having a laptop . . . . . no criticism meant towards you at all. :redbeathe

It is still there - under "My Account" at the very bottom.
